There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Snow leopards who are Pantherines cannot roar, and some extinct genuses of felids such as the Machairodontines (sabertooths) are not known to have been able to roar either, it's debatable, yet some Machairodontines represented some of the biggest cats to have ever lived.

The classification of a big cat being dependable on its ability to roar is, in my opinion, outdated and inaccurate. Cougars being 4th largest felids are definitely big cats.
I definitely consider them big cats . They even have the hunting capabilities too.
